Cactus Dessert Spoon by Gundolph Albertus for Georg Jensen
Georg Jensen
Designed in 1930 by Gundorph Albertus, the Cactus cutlery pattern has elements of Art Deco's penchant for striking decoration and the simplicity of form evident in the emerging functionalist style. The form of the Cactus pattern is simple, yet defined and the stylized detail of the cactus clearly illustrates Gundorph Albertus' meticulous sensitivity to the character of silver.
Material: Sterling Silver
Measurements: H: 6.75 inches
